there's a stimulus calculator here where you can get an idea of how much you'll get...Originally Posted by StarryEyedTiGeR
Yikes, if i even get one i won't be getting it until July
there is also a form on the site where you fill out all of your tax information what you guys got back-and such and it will tell you EXACTLY how much you are getting back.--Which is located in Laureens post!Originally Posted by StarryEyedTiGeR

but the stimulus check isn't a refund - it's a 'gift' from the federal government.Originally Posted by LilleKat
REFUNDS!? You get REFUNDS!?!?! They keep on taking money away from me! Pfft.I would get refunds too, if my work shifts didn't mess things up. One month I get too many shifts and have the pay the extra tax on that, the next I won't get enough and I still pay through the nose for it. 38%! And that's the LOW end of the scale. That's a lot of money when you've not got much. I'm in the wrong country.
why do you think i put that word in quotes?Originally Posted by LilleKat
You know if a government wanted to give me a "gift" they could buy me bathsaltsHehehe

One of the really nasty tricks in the first budget bill of the Clinton administration was that anything "extra," such as a bonus, the $50 gas card we got last week for safety, etc., is automatically withheld at the highest rate, which is currently 38%.Originally Posted by LilleKat
